Social Workers Month is here and I couldn’t let it pass without celebrating the incredible social workers we have at Altoona Nursing & Rehab. 💙
Social work in long-term care takes a special kind of heart. It’s advocating for residents, supporting families through tough moments, coordinating care, and being a constant source of compassion and stability in the building. It’s not always easy, but it is so important.
To show a small token of appreciation, I put together some little “social worker survival kits” filled with some essentials… Alani energy drinks, coffee gift cards,snacks, lip balm, face masks, and hand lotion. Just a few things to help them recharge while they continue doing the amazing work they do every day.
We are lucky to have such caring, dedicated social workers on our team. Thank you Jauna & Emily for the difference you make for our residents, families, and staff every single day. 💙
